Open Window Weather

These few pieces of furniture made there way out to the porch over a week ago (tee hee).  Although there was a teensy chill, I opened windows (again). 

I tried another "new" recipe from the pile last night - overnight french toast casserole.  I didn't really follow it completely, and used a topping recipe from another recipe.  It was good, and easy to make.  Just very sweet, so a vegetable hash side would have been nice.

Rainy Day Advantage ~ Tidbits

I had two jobs on the list for rainy days.  One - a good overall cleaning of the master bathroom.  Two -  my bedroom closet.  The closet won.

I never did finish the closet last fall, so I chose to dig into that job first.   That is what I was doing when I got a text message from Hubby to pack my bags and that we were leaving for the weekend (last weekend).  

I had tossed all my clothes out of the closet and onto the floor.  Hubby thought I had lost my mind.  I went through each piece, purging anything I had not worn and re-organizing.  It's Hubby's turn to purge next.
